I am 5' 8", need to lose a few pounds, though I think I look ok and many people tend to describe me as a teddy bear. I am basically just an average joe.

I am not a "Denzel" or "50 cent" type, I am known more for my intelligence and personality than anything else. I am a bit shy at first until I get to know someone, with a bit or sarcastic manner and sense of humor.

I am basically just one of the "nice guys" that somehow gets overlooked or ends up the friend -- which is not in itself bad, but it gets to be redundant after awhile. I may not seem flashy or attention grabbing at first, but have worth within me.

I am unique, eccentric, and sarcastic

What I’m doing with my life

I live in Brooklyn and work for the city in the Health Field. I am an avid reader and sometimes write.

My face and the fact that I wear glasses. It gives them the first impression that I am intelligent and sort of nerdy, but nice (though I am not ashamed to state I am proud of my intelligence - Nerds Rule and are hot!).

I could never do without my family, friends, books, music, computer, and I guess my cell phone.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Trying to figure out what people think about and what motivates their behavior.

On a typical Friday night I am

I enjoy getting out when I can and sharing a good meal, or drinks over conversation. Hanging out with friends. I also like to walk about and enjoy the city.

I enjoy relaxing having a drink while reading, or checking out the infrequent good movie.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit

I am a bit shy.... And I do not know how to use chopsticks, despite knowing Asian friends for the past 40+ years and having Dim Sum almost every week

You should message me if

Can relate to a person who may be a bit of an introvert at first glance, but you can take the time to get to know the inner person. Message me if you like to meet someone who is cynical and sarcastic, but intelligent, loyal, fun to hang out with to observe and enjoy the crazy city around us.
